These problems are not new or only affecting MacBooks. I had a 27" iMac for work and it cooked the display panel, HDD and the discrete graphics card. I did drive the system, including the GPU, reasonably hard, but nothing exceptional. To Apple's credit, they did replace the HDD and the display panel for free, but when the graphics card died I just gave up on it. It seems like the combination of the form factor, components and thermal solutions that Apple uses just don't add up.
